Kobato wanted to prove to herself that she was able to do as well as other people in fighting, but when you could only summon to fight, it wasn't as easy as she first thought. Instead she focused on doing her best in healing and helping those that were in need.

So with staff in hand she set about doing exactly that. As she was helping out a few children who had been separated from their mother she couldn't help but notice Zelda and the situation she seemed to be in.

She felt like she must help. As she was about to take a step she paused. Would she really be of use? Or would she be about as useless as she had been at that place. Shaking the thoughts out of her head she gripped her staff and looking at the kids. "Go and hide now! I'll tell you when you can come out." She said as they nodded before heading off and she went running towards the trouble.

"Zelda-san!" She yelled before reaching her. "I hope it's alright if I help. I could summon something that could beat them all at once."

Zelda lowered her sword with a quick nod. "There are more coming. If you could clear these we can move the fighting further from the citizens escape route." She had complete confidence in Kobato when it came to combat as well as her abilities.

It was easy for Zelda since she had trained with Link at the knight school under her father and the other teachers but she knows not everyone came from a world were such training was normal. Considering that Kobato has only been in a handful of fights she was doing a very good job using her powers.

Zelda side stepped out of her friends way ready to protect the summoner while she casted towards the creatures that slowly worked their way towards the pair.

Kobato nodded as she made sure she was standing in the right position before she went about summoning Ifrit. It was one of the two that she really felt comfortable using for the moment and at least this way she knew he wouldn't cause more fires and worry the other citizens more.

When they were summoned and went to attack, Kobato once more glanced over. "There, that should help maybe."

"Yes." Zelda smiled at the girl with a proud stare. She was happy to see Kobato more comfortable with her casting if only because she didn't want her friend getting hurt amiss the war that raged for the city.

She only could spare her gaze for a moment before turning back to see the continuous wave of monsters approach. It was going to be a long and tiring time fighting the monsters from the city and until the Empire was gone they needed to keep their defense strong.

"We can't relent. If you need potions or healing items I have some with me. If we stay together, we can do it."

Zelda didn't really care for fighting even as her blade pierced the skin of a creature slicing its haunting form before flicking her wrist so that it gets tossed to the side. She couldn't smile though she tried to keep the confident and steady air as her determination rose.

Her summons managed to get a few monsters down and out before she changes tactics and he disappeared. She figured she might as well be the healer in this situation. Maybe people needed to be healed and she was the person to do it.

"I'll be fine. My other job can help heal those that need it anyway." She said happily.; She had been more focused on figuring that out than the other one so she felt more comfortable in using it. She stepped back, making sure she wasn't in the front lines before looking around and see if anyone needed help. So far so good really.

"Can you keep them away or do I need to try and summon again?"

"I should be fine." She turned back to Kobato having the time to take a breath. "I can handle this side. If you could heal that would be perfect." She paused for a moment glancing around to make sure that they were still safe from attacks. "Thank you. Kobato."

Zelda turned back towards the fight, her blond hair fanning behind her as she swung her sword down on the monsters trickling towards her. She could easily hold this street now that Kobato had taken out those monsters who had gathered before she started her fight. She was grateful for the help and even happier to know that there were so many great heroes she could rely on. All of them so willing to help those who need it.

Kobato nodded instead of using her summoning abilities she focused on using healing whenever she needed it. As she was watching she couldn't help but noticed an injured person close by and couldn't help but quickly run over to them to help, not informing Zelda that she wasn't going to be far.

"You look hurt. here let me help." She said using cure to be able to help the injured civilian before helping them up and lead them back to where she was before. She was going to do her best to help no matter what.

"Zelda-san! I found someone I need to find a safe place for."

"Follow the crowd to the edge of the city. They should be safe their with the others." Zelda continued her efforts glancing back only momentarily so that she could be heard by her friend. She didn't want to stop her deadly dance or give the creatures an opening for attack. She trusted Kobato to guide the woman safely and would leave the task to her.

"If more are injured then stay with them to help. I don't know if we have anyone there helping to heal the wounded." Her voice was clear and strong as sweat dotted her brow.

Kobato was trying her best to slowly guide the somewhat better woman, making sure to follow what instruction Zelda had asked of her. Along the route she had come across a couple more people as she would stop to help them, using cure to be able to at least heal any injuries a tiny bit; enough to be able to keep moving.

As she was tending one of them a monster had been slowly making it's way towards Kobato and the other injured party while Kobato hadn't been paying that much attention.

Zelda was watching Kobato as she left making sure that her escape was clear of monsters so that the hero could guide the people away without trouble. She saw the monster approaching Kobato but didn't take a moment to cry out. Instead she ran towards her friend interposing herself between the pair as the monster begins to attack.

"I will stay behind. You keep going." She didn't want her to stop though their was a gash down her right arm from the monsters claws. The civilians were more important and they were close to being within the rang of the refuge camp. They would be safe there, or so Zelda believed.

Kobato moved back slightly standing in front of the civilians just in case when she saw it happened. Her eyes widened slightly as she was shocked that it ever happened. She didn't want to see her friend get hit. Not again.

As soon as the coast was clear she ran over quickly, hoping that she could use cure to help the injury the other had gotten before she would even think of doing anything else. She just wanted to help everyone, but it seemed there was so much going on that it was making it hard and harder to do.

"That should do, but please be more careful next time" She said signalling for the people to follow her closely as she stood up again. She didn't want to have to heal again this soon so now was as good as time as any to start heading off, looking back every now and again to see if the other was still okay.

Her wound healed with the cure spell leaving only a pink scar were the monster had struck her. She let out a shaky breath feeling her grip on her sword slip within her hold. She had to keep fighting and keep the path safe for them to all get away.

"Thank you. Just please be safe." Zelda's voice was gentle but firm. She didn't want Kobato to get hurt. This was a battle which meant keeping your eyes everywhere at once. She turned her back towards Kobato once again letting her move away while she held their escape route. Nothing would get past her as long as she was standing there, ensuring their safety.
